A showstopper in every sense, Bartzella Itoh Peony blends the best traits of tree and herbaceous peonies, producing massive, semi-double to fully double blooms in a radiant buttery yellow. Each flower is infused with soft red central flares and a light citrus fragrance, making this variety a true centerpiece in any sunny perennial garden. Strong, upright stems hold the large blooms high above the foliage, eliminating the need for staking.
 
As an intersectional (Itoh) peony, Bartzella combines the vigor and structure of tree peonies with the lush blooms and die-back habit of herbaceous types. It forms a sturdy, dome-shaped clump with deeply divided, rich green foliage that remains attractive throughout the growing season—even after flowering has finished.
 
Hardy and long-lived, Bartzella thrives in Manitoba’s climate and returns reliably each spring with minimal maintenance. Its extended bloom time, exceptional form, and unique coloring make it a must-have for both new and seasoned gardeners.
